Beef wet fry is such a versatile dish.. it can be paired with chapatis, pilau, ugali, bhajias etc. This is how simple I make mine.

Handful chopped Dania stems
5 cloves of garlic grated

PROCEDURE
-clean your beef and drizzle some lemon juice /white vinegar on it before other preparations.

In a hot heavy based pan/pot add in your beef and some salt and cook it down for 2-3 min to remove the water content from it.
